The safari of your dreams

Climbing Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is already an amazing experience. But since you're there anyway, why not consider adding a few extra days to your trip by visiting Tanzania's most intriguing National Parks?

For the ultimate Tanzania Safari package I have compiled safaris from an amazing day trip to six unforgettable days. They consist of stays in comfortable eco-lodges just outside the main parks and daily game drives through various parks.
